ON PROPERTY ZONED R -1:8
APN: 529 -14 -059
SUBDIVISION APPLICATION: M -06 -01
PROPERTY LOCATION: 16961 PLACER OAKS ROAD
PROPERTY OWNER/APPELLANT: HOWELL & MCNEIL DEVELOPMENT LLC
WHEREAS:
A. This matter came before the Town Council for public hearing on December 18, 2006,
and was regularly noticed in conformance with State and Town law.
B. Council received testimony and documentary evidence from the appellant/applicant
and all interested persons who wished to testify or submit documents. Council considered all
testimony and materials submitted, including the record of the Planning Commission proceedings and
the packet of material contained in the Council Agenda Report dated December 14, 2006, along with
subsequent reports and materials prepared concerning this application.
C. The applicant is requesting approval of a lot line adjustment between two parcels,
demolition of a single family residence and the construction of two single family residences. The
applicant proposes to construct a 3,185 square foot, one -story home on Lot 1 and a 3,165 square foot,
two -story home on Lot 2. Council's decision on the appeal of the Planning Commission decision
effectively denying Architecture and Site approval for the demolition of the existing house and
construction of two new houses is addressed in a separate resolution adopted concurrently herewith
(Resolution 2007 -010).
D. The applications were considered by the Planning Comm scion on May 10, 2006,
which continued the matter with the following directions:
House sizes should be in the 2,400 sq. ft. range.
ii. Look at using building materials that will allow the interior sound levels of
the houses to meet the noise standards of a multiple family dwelling unit to
reduce noise impacts.
iii. Consider 22' -0" overall height.
E. The applications were again considered by the Planning Commission on June 28,
2006, which remanded the applications to the Development Review Committee for final action
with the following directions:
i. The house on Lot 1 shall be one story.
ii. The height of the house on Lot 2 shall be reduced by 1.5 feet.
iii. The roof color on Lot 2 shall be darkened to ensure it is not a red clay tile
roof.
F. The applications were considered by the Development Review Committee on
September 26, 2006, which acted to approve the proposed plans based on the finding that the
applicant's revisions met the direction of the Planning Commission. This decision was appealed
by a neighboring resident.
G. An appeal of the Development Review Committee's decision was considered by
the Planning Commission on October 25, 2006, which acted to grant the appeal to deny the
applications. The Planning Commission based its decision on the finding that its intention from
the June 28, 2006 hearing was to reduce the square footage of both houses to the 2,200 -2,400 sq
ft. range as well as reduce the height of the house on Lot 1 to one story. The requirement to
reduce the size of the homes was not in their motion.
H. The applicantlappellant claims that the Planning Commission erred or abused its
discretion in that the houses are compatible with the neighborhood in terms of the proposed
square footages, number of stories, and the subject lots being among the larger lot sizes in the
neighborhood, which allows a larger floor area ratio (FAR).
I. The decision of the Planning Commission was incorrect and is hereby reversed.
Council finds as follows:
The lot line adjustment is consistent with the Los Gatos General Plan, as
evidenced by staff reports demonstrating that the proposed residential use is allowed under the
existing zoning and does not violate any provisions of the General Plan.
ii. Pursuant to Town Code section 29.20.300, the Planning Commission erred
in denying the application for the lot line adjustment without making the necessary findings.
RESOLVED:
1. The appeal of the decision to deny subdivision application M -06 -01 is granted and
the application is approved subject to the conditions attached as Exhibit "A" hereto.
2. The decision constitutes a final administrative decision pursuant to Code of Civil
Procedure section 1094.6 as adopted by section 1.10.085 of the Town Code of the Town of Los
Gatos. Any application forjudicial relief from this decision must be sought within the time limits
and pursuant to the procedures established by Code of Civil Procedure section 1094.6, or such
shorter time as required by State and Federal Law.
PASSED AND ADOPTED at a regular meeting of the Town Council of the Town of Los
Gatos, California on the 5th day of February 2007, by the following vote.
